Our results show no significant evidence for a deviation from the standard LCDM model. The combination of the information from our clustering measurements with recent data from the cosmic microwave background is sufficient to constrain the curvature of the Universe to Omega_k = 0.0010 +- 0.0029, the total neutrino mass to Sum m_nu < 0.23 eV (95% confidence level), the effective number of relativistic species to N_eff=3.31 +- 0.27, and the dark energy equation of state to w_DE = -1.051 +- 0.076. These limits are further improved by adding information from type Ia supernovae and baryon acoustic oscillations from other samples. In particular, this data set combination is completely consistent with a time-independent dark energy equation of state, in which case we find w_DE=-1.024 +- 0.052. We explore the constraints on the growth-rate of cosmic structures assuming f(z)=Omega_m(z)^gamma and obtain gamma=0.69 +- 0.15, in agreement with the predictions from general relativity of gamma=0.55.
